You can visit Disney California Adventure or Disneyland 3 hours prior to the party starting. In the past, you could only visit Disneyland. This means you can experience the new Halloween Time activities at California Adventure like the Haul-O-Ween makeover in Cars Land. Plus the party ticket includes unlimited Disney PhotoPass during the event.

Do I have to wear a costume at Mickey’s Halloween Party?

You don’t have to wear a Halloween costume but a majority of attendees do (including adults). It’s the perfect time to indulge in your whimsy or crazy costume ideas.

Even if you don’t dress up, it’s fun to see everyone else’s creative costumes. From the simple DIY to elaborate and Broadway-worthy, there is a wide variety of costumed participants. The best part is seeing groups attend in costume themes.

Quick question, I know Disney Visa card holders must call to purchase their tickets, but do you know if we can call at midnight on the 21st? We are planning on going on Halloween, which is my birthday, and don’t want to miss out on those tickets. Thanks!
